| Hi Andrew, There used to be a few companies advertising that service in the classifieds in the back of the 'MCN', but you should find some options on the web if you search motorcycle wheel rebuilding. Such as these I found at random using 'motorcycle wheel building' as a search term :- WHEEL BUILDING - C.Wylde & Son Ltd www.cwylde.co.uk/section.php?xSec=2 Motorcycle Wheel Building from Central Wheel Components ... www.central-wheel.co.uk/wheelbuilding/wheelbuilding.html Wheel Building - Monty's Classic Motorcycles montysbritishclassicmotorcycles.com/id56.html Wheel Building for Bicycle and Motorcycle Wheels colwoodwheelworks.co.uk/wheel-building So that's a starter - clearly some are specialist builders for classic machines, & therefore might be a little more expensive. Stainless spokes were mentioned on an option in the sampler text for C.Wylde & Son Ltd. I guess its like most things - you get what you pay for. Hope that helps Yam | |
